If, after the past 4 years...NO!..if after the past 40 YEARS...you aren't "motivated" to vote Retrumplicans out of power, you have lost your humanity.
We simply can't have a functioning, civil society if Retrumplicans are in power.
Unfortunately, we all have the same problem. We tend to not get motivated until something personally impacts us.
Zealots and fundamentalists are motivated much more by "how they can fuck other peoples shit up", than by how something impacts them. The cruelty is the motivation
Unless and until decent human beings begin to run in and win elections, and I mean elections from President of the United States, to President of the PTA, all of this "are we motivated yet" horseshit is an exercise in futility.
Without winning elections, we are "powerless". The Retrumplicans understand this.
Motivated? Hell, we can't even organize a boycott, or do anything about Hate Radio stations headquartered in DEM majority cities that spend 24/7 demonizing and dehumanizing 70 percent of the residents of those cities.
NOBODY BETTER EVER ASK ME WHY THE PEOPLE OF AFGHANISTAN DIDN'T FIGHT BACK
